Little bit of progress from cp_blackgold
It's a 5cp map, this area is just death-match/transition. Everything here is early alpha.
Any critique is appreciated, thanks.

That map looks like its overbright on the sky light. Many of the surfaces are bright white or yellow while it should be gray or orange.

Looks like HDR lighting is on and needs to be toned back a bit.

ThePhlubs: i like seeing how you're using the dev textures here, thanks for sharing.

do you feel there is an advantage to lining up wall corners with texture dimensions? does that help in the detailing phase?

is there any rhyme or reason to how you're using wall texture colors? does, for example, the gray, red, and white wall textures represent something different in your mind?

thx

Lining the textures definitely does help me personally, just to map and lay things out faster. The textures represent playable area. Red/Blue are playable key buildings, orange and white are neutral, gray is non-playable areas that I haven't clipped yet.

I personally use the 64 unit grid box and pre-plan areas because I personally hate cramped areas that aren't flank routes. Laying out areas ahead of time really helps me with flow and planning out key areas.
